Private Jet Services enhances membership benefits
Private Jet Services' membership programme now shows actual versus estimated flight hours and reduced live minimum flight times. The pricing of super-mid and heavy aircraft, however, remains unchanged.

Private Jet Services (PJS) is adding benefits and enhancements to its membership programme, that to date provides simple, all inclusive and fixed hourly rates, relieving members from hefty annual membership fees and aircraft interchange fees. Landing fees, fuel surcharges and taxes are all included in membership pricing. Members are guaranteed global aircraft availability 365 days per year on as little as 10 hours notice. All flights include complimentary catering and a dedicated inflight concierge.

PJS offers a choice in billing models; upon membership initiation and renewal, members can choose to be billed for either estimated or actual flight time. This feature adds another level of pricing transparency to the company's progressive membership programme.

2019 brought significant changes in the industry such as pilot strikes, grounded aircraft and the ADS-B 1 January, 2020 mandate, all of which have impacted embedded aviation costs on a worldwide basis. Despite these market-influencing headwinds, however, the company confirms that pricing for larger aircraft in the super-mid and heavy categories remains unchanged. Rates established in 2017 will continue through 2020.

Since a significant number of members fly frequent, short-leg trips, flight minimums for light aircraft have decreased from 78 minutes to 60 minutes to best meet the needs of this client segment.

“Since 2003, PJS has built its reputation by servicing our customers one flight at a time,” says CEO Greg Raiff. “Through the flawless execution of transportation logistics, paired with transparent, fixed pricing and flexible options, our members maximise the value of their investment. The PJS team delivers extraordinary and remarkable service, earning the trust and confidence of the most discriminating flyers.”
